Description:
The Stratocaster model, introduced in 1954, brought about a true revolution in the guitar landscape, and this innovation evolved, with some enhancements, into what we now consider an absolute masterpiece: the 1957 Stratocaster.
The Fender American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster reproduces the original instrument from the "Golden Era" with exceptional accuracy and features an alder body, a maple neck with a "V" profile, a maple fingerboard with a 7.25" radius, a Vintage Synchronized Tremolo bridge with an inertia block, and Pure Vintage ’57 Stratocaster pickups.
This instrument, as soon as it is picked up, conveys an authentic feel and, when plugged in, excites with its vintage tone.
The American Vintage II Series showcases a selection of the most iconic instruments in Fender's history, reproduced with exceptional accuracy in terms of technical, aesthetic, and tonal aspects. Compared to the American Original Series, this new and updated series offers instruments that are even more historically precise, representing the closest reproduction to Fender Custom Shop production ever offered in the Fender USA catalog.
